Overnight guest - "The names I am called"....

PD had planned an overnight getaway for herself and hubby.They started their “indulgence” day at Rock Barn Spa and then headed to downtown Asheville and were staying at Hotel Indigo ASHEVILLE …so I had the privilege of an overnight guest…Cooper Lee!

It had been explained to Cooper that he would be spending the night with “Miss Jan” that’s how he refers to me!So here is Coop’s overnight bag filled with his bed (down comforter) and dog food with measuring cup (HA!).Coop was told by the Vet that he needed to drop a few pounds so PD has him on a diet. I was given strict instructions as to how much food he could have.OKAY!

So after getting Coop settled, he and I spent Saturday lounging the day away. I decided to make a quick run to Wal-Mart (prefer Target- but that would have taken a total of 30 minutes of drive time) so off to Wal-Mart I go for a few necessary items: Oil of Olay soap, Quattro razors and of course Waggin Train dog treats!

Well $65 later this is what I arrived home with:

So Coop’s bed is ready for him to snuggle in:

So off to bed I go…and guess which bed Coop selected for sleeping

So we get up early because Coop needed “go out”. So I got my coffee & breakfast, and turn around to see this…lucky my camera was handy…because this is priceless!

So much for a diet for Cooper or myself!

So the remainder of the day will be spent lounging again…just me and Coop!

Just in case you are wondering what type of cookies…here you go

Bella Rose (NPD’s baby) will be staying with me in a few weeks while her mommy and daddy enjoy an overnight adventure.Now Bella is a princess...

She likes for her “granny” to whisper secrets in her ears, snuggle and when you say “ready for bed” she is in the bed in a second.She likes to sleep more than me.So another "lounging” weekend is on my schedule...whooohoo!

So recently I told PD and NPD that we needed to get this name thing straight.I have Bella who refers to me as “Granny”, Cooper ... “Miss Jan” and I have already introduced myself (via PD’s tummy) to sweet Hudson as “Gigi”.
